Ever wanted to research your family history but don’t know where to start? Then come along to our ‘Ancestry with Anthea’ session at the Heritage Centre. Anthea Lang has been doing family history research for over 20 years and has run many successful family history courses. Anthea retired from her role as Gateshead Council’s Local History and Heritage Manager and has continued to help people living locally and around the world trace their family trees with her wealth of knowledge about the North East. She is also an author and has written several books about the local area. Come along and discover the how, where and when of family history research. We’re hoping to run a session on the first Friday afternoon of every month, come along and find out more in this friendly and informal session taking part in our Map Room (refreshments can be purchased from our on-site cafe)...
